Slowing objects down in certain areas

[PJani]

Hy, im trying to create slow down efect when object is going throu tree or bushes.
any idea how to do this?

Yes. You can simply decrease time span. For example:

Code: Select all

NewtonUpdate(myWorld, timeSpan * 0.5f);

Slow down simulation twice. Instead of some weird constant, try to use a curve to simulate slowdowns.

Increasing linear and angular dampening while the object is in a bush would work.

you can put a trigger volume covering teh area, then you can apply some drag when the body in in the volume.
In the trigger volume material callback you can do something as cheap as
BodySetVelocity (BodyGetVelocity().Scakle (0.995))

It does wonders for the prize

Sorry for missleading answer. I didn't understand correctly what you was asking about.
